Claus Ibsen commented on CAMEL-1300:
------------------------------------

Introduced @FallbackConverter for discovering annotations based fallback 
converters.

See updated type converter wiki



> Type Converter (when using wrapper/holder objects) it should be possible to 
> delegate the type converter to the embedded object/body that is wrapped

> During the work with the Camel VFS we use 
> org.apache.camel.component.file.GenericFile<T> as a wrapper object of the 
> actual type (such as java.io.File, some FTP file, or whatever)
> As java.io.File is central in many components we have type converters that 
> can convert to/from java.io.File.
> I am tired of adding copy of java.io.File converter methods with the 
> signature of GenericFile<File> and delegate to the java.io.File method.
> What is needed is type converter registry to be able to indirect/delegate to 
> the wrapped object automatically.
> For instance if we could implement some interface in GenericFile and it could 
> just return the body and then we are home free.
> Ticket created to remind me to look into it.
> Maybe the camel-cxf component could use this as well for some of the POJO 
> payloads as its uses some internal CXF ValueListHolder or what the class was 
> named
